Helmet lock frame mounted w/pictures
Got a frame mounted helmet lock installed on the lower part of the frame tube, it is not even visible, it doesn't stop helmet thief from cutting the strap but a piece of mind, take it easy!

Exactly, it doesn't stop a thief from cutting the strap. Of course, a strapless helmet would make the helmet useless, I don't have faith in thieves to understand that before stealing it.
Good idea though.
Me? I take my helmet inside with me everywhere. Maybe that makes me look stupid, walking around a grocery store with a helmet, but living in Chicago, I wouldn't put it past anyone to steal something of mine.
Heck, there was one dude on here last year that said someone parked next to their ride at a dealership and proceeded to uninstall a few bolt-on items in front of everyone. I think he said they took some Willie G stuff and his air cleaner. Shoot, in a dark parking garage, sure I could see that....but at a dealership? Crazy!
Just wondering, would you be leaving it on when you're at a temporary stop (friends house, grocery store, restaurant) or on the street where you live (overnight)? I ask because this person parks their scooter with an upside down helmet on my walk into work and it fills up with water, I don't understand that. Heck, I wouldn't trust the bums or drunk a-holes from peeing in it either.

Looks like the lock the dealer sells from their catalog. I had one on a Heritage, but with the safety one way mounting screws, couldn't take it off when traded. Works well and is fits different size tubings. I mounted mine on the crash bar/engine guard. dd50. tomp

Get this one for 1 1/2 tube, the Harley one is for small sportster frame tube. I don't carry helmet with me, pain in the A S S, I usually leave it on the mirror and strap it down, now I lock it there, makes life easier, if someone wants to cut it, let it be.

Looks to me like that Helmet is on the ground.... I'd rather not. I just usually leave it on the Speedo or Mirror, with my sunglasses hanging on the grip... I've never had either stolen.
